She also reflects on what achievement means to her now, and how her perspective has shifted compared with earlier stages of her career.
The conversation moves on to Lily’s recent Saturday Night Live appearance, which featured a surprise cameo from Dakota Johnson. Lily shares behind-the-scenes insight into the performance and how it felt to return to such a high-profile US stage during an especially busy period of her life.

The festive episode closes with Lily and Miquita singing the Christmas carol Good King Wenceslas together.
Produced by Persephonica, Miss Me? is available on BBC Sounds, with Listen Bitch! now. There will also be a special episode of The Meaty Drop on New Year’s Day, featuring Jordan Stephens, Miquita, Lily and JADE.
